User's notes

Beside the road next to Wet Lagoon. Only the second time I've ever seen one and looks like it's the first sighting in the ACT region. Was super excited to see it.

I have only seen it by lagoons on Cape Yorke, but widely distributed according to Gunther. Wet Lagoon is a special place. Could be a local breeding population there.
